Presented in partnership with Lyric Opera of Chicago, the Harris Theater’s Beyond the Aria series pairs some of the most celebrated voices in opera today with developing artists from the Patrick G. and Shirley W. Ryan Opera Center. Each concert is enjoyed cabaret-style with special one-night-only programs performed on the iconic Pritzker Pavilion stage.

Mezzo-soprano J’Nai Bridges brings her “rich, opulent voice” (Seattle Times) as she takes the stage with baritone Finn Sagal, tenor Daniel Luis Espinal, and Series Artistic Director Craig Terry.
